Welcome, welcome, welcome to

to episode number 65 of the eaves drop podcast I'm upset that we're not doing this

live man I'm gonna be honest with you yeah not not doing a live is definitely a bummer because I've been

watching these since you started you know however long ago it was and I've always

wanted to do one live but yeah got to make do with what we got we do we do and it's it's painful for me because I have this this sort of view of what my

podcast is and how it should be produced and all that and I think the live component adds on to like the actual conversation

right like we're sitting here miles and miles thousands of miles away you're not

looking at me you're looking to the left of you.

You're probably reading Twitter and that never happens when we're doing.

Huh? Staring straight at you right now.

Oh no no. Don't look at the camera no more. Just look at it. Don't look at me.

It doesn't matter. Either way like this is the sort of, you know what I mean? This is the exact same

scenario that we avoid by doing it live and it sort of becomes this like true and honest conversation

of what you know what the interview is about and for the most part again and I'll say this over and over again, just so people get through their brain, some people,

it's like the reason I do these is because there's going to come a time in our history of e-sports, 10 years from now, 5 years from now, 12 years from now, where somebody's going to be studying

e-sports and what happened, how it happened, how it came to be, and there's going to be a student somewhere

in some college doing research on e-sports and they're going to be a student somewhere in some college doing research on

e-sports and they're going to come across this podcast and they're going to listen to

65 hours worth of content that they're going to be able to sort of get a true fuel for what it was like in this day and age.

Anyway, Octane, Sam, Leru, Octane, ex-tee

teammate of mine, we were teammates for a little bit. Short, short,

short stint. Yeah, I wish it would have lasted longer if she said
